Creative, youthful and spirited, the new Ducati Scrambler is more than just a motorcycle, it is a new brand that enhances creativity, self-expression and the sharing of positive emotions. It is a universe of fun, joy and freedom made of motorcycles, accessories and apparel.

That's why #welovemonster

With its supremely sporty performance and agility, the new Monster 821 has been designed for maximum riding pleasure. The performance of the 109 HP Testastretta 11° engine is enhanced by the Ducati Safety Pack (ABS and Ducati Traction Control) and the Riding Modes, which guarantee maximum safety always and everywhere.

25 years of Monster

The Monster 821 pays homage to the legacy of the Monster 900, which over 25 years ago revolutionised the motorcycle world, embodying the essence of true naked sport.
Simple and sporty, agile and powerful, the Monster 821 combines perfect performance and ease of riding.

The design of the new Monster 821 is 100% Monster. The volumes, silhouette, tank and headlight are true to the original lines of the bike born in 1993 but revisited with a modern flair. The iconic and unmistakable tank also comes with a fastening hook, just like the first Monster.

Testastretta 11° engine

Thanks to high maximum power and torque values, fluid delivery and a full torque curve at all speeds, the new Monster 821's Testastretta 11° engine can guarantee performance and agility to the rider.
The Monster 821 is also available for those with a restricted licence, as a version with 35 kW of regulated power.

The pleasure of a safe ride

In perfect harmony with the road, the new Monster 821 is capable of conveying pleasant riding sensations, supported by advanced technology and the specially designed ergonomics of this model.

Endless excitement

The advanced materials and technologies of the Ducati Testastretta 11° engine allow for particularly long maintenance intervals and reduced running costs, calling for an oil change every 15,000 Km (or 12 months) and valve clearance control (Desmo Service) every 30,000 km.

The power/torque values indicated are measured using an engine dynamometer according to homologation regulation and they correspond to the homologated data, as quoted in the Bike Registration Document.

The new Monster 821 has a structure with a load-bearing engine and the main trellis frame attached to the twin-cylinder heads.
The concept is derived from racing and was applied for the first time to a production bike with the Panigale project.
This configuration allows for a very compact, lightweight frame, and, thanks to tubes with a large cross-section, also a high torsional rigidity, perfect for bringing out the dynamic qualities of the vehicle.
The double-sided swinging arm of the Monster 821 also guarantees a compact 1480 mm wheelbase.
The rear subframe seat support, also attached directly to the engine, has been redesigned, creating a compact structure intended to also support the new passenger footpeg brackets, separate from those of the rider, to provide greater freedom of movement during sport riding. The attachments for rider and passenger footpegs are made of cast aluminium and are fitted with aluminium footpegs. The rider footpegs are completed with an aluminium heel guard, underlining the sporty soul of the Monster 821.

Brembo braking system

The new Monster 821 braking system guarantees high performance and maximum safety in all conditions.

Ducati Quick Shift up & down (DQS)

One of the accessories available for the Monster 821 is the Ducati Quick Shift up/down, an electronic system derived from racing that makes it possible to change gears without the use of the clutch and without closing the throttle when shifting up, and shifting down without using the clutch, but only with a closed throttle.

One of the accessories available for the Monster 821 is the Ducati Quick Shift up/down, an electronic system derived from racing that makes it possible to change gears without the use of the clutch and without closing the throttle when shifting up, and shifting down without using the clutch, but only with a closed throttle.
The system consists of a bi-directional microswitch integrated into the gearchange lever linkage that, when used, sends a signal to the engine control unit.
The system acts differently depending on the direction of the change, integrating advance ignition and injection during the upshift phase, and controlled throttle opening (automatic ""blipping"") when the gear pedal is pressed in downshift mode. The magnitude and duration of the solutions are implemented in such a way as to ensure maximum fluidity in various riding conditions.
In acceleration, the DQS system saves fractions of a second that would otherwise be lost by closing the accelerator and acting on the clutch lever, and increases stability because the time in which there is no power output is reduced. When downshifting during braking, DQS allows the gears to be easily engaged without having to use the clutch, letting the rider concentrate exclusively on braking and cornering manoeuvres. This system not only makes sport riding more enjoyable, but also represents a valuable help in city traffic and winding roads that require frequent gear changes.

Testastretta 11°

The new Monster 821 is driven by the twin-cylinder Desmodromic Testastretta 11° with a displacement of 821 cm³, designed to be a structural element of the chassis.

"
"The engine ""breathes"" through Ride-by-Wire commanded throttle bodies, is Euro 4 approved and ensures a maximum output of 109 hp (80 kW) with 9,250 rpm and a maximum torque of 8.8 kgm (86 Nm) at 7,750 rpm.
Developed to ensure a delivery of full and progressive torque at every speed, this engine guarantees fun and usability that are within reach of all.
Furthermore, long maintenance intervals calling for the control of valve clearance every 30,000 km make the Monster 821 a reliable and accessible bike.

Power and torque

With tailor-made and optimised exhaust and intake systems, the Testastretta 11° engine delivers a high power output of 109 hp (80 kW) without sacrificing an extremely favourable torque curve.

With tailor-made and optimised exhaust and intake systems, the Testastretta 11° engine delivers a high power output of 109 hp (80 kW) without sacrificing an extremely favourable torque curve.
Both the most demanding racers and urban riders will appreciate the vigorous torque, always available in a wide range of speeds, reaching 85% of its maximum value already at 5000 rpm.
The character of the Testastretta 11° is exalted by the choice of the final ratio defined to develop the maximum acceleration and maximum engine response of each gear at every throttle opening.

Anti-hop clutch

The anti-hop wet clutch on the Monster 821 is cable-driven and requires little effort on the lever.

The anti-hop wet clutch on the Monster 821 is cable-driven and requires little effort on the lever.
Thanks to a progressive control system, the spring load is automatically increased. The result is a much greater sensitivity of the lever, which guarantees excellent comfort even in the event of frequent gear changes, in city traffic or on long journeys.
When the torque on the wheel has an opposite effect, the same mechanism reduces the pressure on the clutch plates, allowing them to work in the anti-hop sport mode that counteracts the destabilisation of the rear end during aggressive downshifts while always ensuring safety and control.

Exhaust system

The Testastretta 11° 821 engine is coupled with a type 2-1 exhaust system leaving no room for doubt about the performance it can deliver.

The primary exhaust ducts, with a 50 mm cross-section, were designed with equal lengths to maximise engine power and efficiency of delivery.
The system is equipped with a lambda sensor for each cylinder in order to autonomously and optimally manage the fuel supply.
The silencers, combined in an overlapped and fully redesigned configuration, have a catalytic converter to ensure compliance with Euro 4 regulations, while the electronically controlled regulation valve optimises the exhaust pressure throughout the full range of use.
